I began with an apology. I had advertised this hangout as starting 10pm Wednesday, New York time, 3am London time. I logged on just after 2.30am, and a bloke who was obviously on the other side of The Pond said he thought I’d fallen asleep. It turns out that New York is currently only four hours behind London, so I may have lost a few viewers, but I wasn’t expecting many anyway.
I mentioned the Dr Luke v Kesha Sebert case and the false allegation she made that he had raped Katy Perry.
The singer-songwriter Duffy has claimed she was drugged, falsely imprisoned and raped repeatedly. This happened or more likely didn’t happen some years ago.
The main subject was Bill Cosby/Harvey Weinstein and how this so-called #MeToo Movement has taken down both of them. I asked the question nobody else seems to have asked, not - are you saying all these women are lying? but if these two men raped literally dozens of women, how come there is not one contemporaneous police report or medical report?
I pointed out that even many genuinely vulnerable women and quite young girls a) fight back and b) report promptly or reasonably promptly, giving several examples.
I mentioned another case recently added to the False Rape Timeline: Thomas Curry who was charged with over 2,000 (two thousand) counts of child sexual abuse against one alleged victim. He was cleared of every single one.
I went into some detail about the Weinstein case. His lawyer Donna Rotunno is very tasty, but she made mistakes. She/they, should have put Weinstein on the stand, ditto Tom Mesereau and Cosby.
I went into some detail about the bandwagon effect and related issues. And about Cosby. And of course Gloria Allred.
I trashed the ludicrous so-called expert testimony of Barbara Ziv and the imaginary rape trauma syndrome. Ziv appeared at the Cosby retrial and the Weinstein trial.
I went into the true motivations of the #MeToo Movement.
I covered a bit of how women confabulate and how rape crisis centres encourage this.
